About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be happy, and help others to be happy.

ABOUT ME

Trying to travel around the world as slowly as possible; lucky to have a job that allows me to work and travel at the same time. Spent some time studying abroad, living in Mexico for about 6 month periods more than one time for about a year and a half total in Mexico. Since Mexico have spent a couple of months as an actor in a musical in Malaysia, exploring Tokyo, and going to school in South Korea. So far I've been able to get to Mexico, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, Italy, France, Singapore, Cambodia, Monaco, USA, Thailand, and technically snowboarded across the border into Switzerland. Because I'm always traveling I arrive in a new country every couple months, and stay for 2-3 months, so am always looking to make new friends when I arrive!

PHILOSOPHY

Will Smith is about 80% in line with my own views, much more entertaining to watch him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5nVqeVhgQE
